A [u]hex editor[/u] will allow you to see and (and edit) the bytes in hexadecimal (00-FF).

It will also show the [u]ASCII[/u] characters for any values that can represent text characters like you see when you try to open the file as text. Of course, none of values in a raw audio file actually represent text.

There is some text in a WAV file header and then you'd see the same hex values as the raw file (assuming identical audio).

If you don't know this, 8-bit WAV files are unsigned so they are biased and silence is 128 (80 hex). There's no standard for raw files. Other WAV files use signed values. And, signed values use [u]2's complement[/u] which is a little "odd".
